fun game that is hard and challenging and anybody can play it.
★★★★★positiveLanceG Colorado · 2026-08-17 · v1.55
Strategy…puzzle…chill vibe
Super fun, really chill, makes you think… and gets a little stressful as your passengers start to build up! But just the right amount of stress to make you think and provide a fun challenge.

Extremely slow-paced with glitches
★★★★★positiveTheCW · 2026-07-28 · v1.55
Cleanest. Game. Ever.
Stripped down gaming at its best. I keep coming back to it every few years and it never fails to challenge and entrance.

★★★★positiveMentions pricingAn Impressed Reveiw · 2026-07-01 · v1.55
simple addictive game
It would be 5 stars, perfectly built and balanced, but it’s not quite worth 4 dollars. Maybe 2 dollars and I would give 5 stars
★★★★★positivecraftyashley · 2026-06-29 · v1.55
I don’t understand some of it yet but so relaxing
It is such a well made and chill game
★★★★★positiveBruhKing69 · 2026-06-28 · v1.55
Best game in the world
Super fun
★★★★★positivePiano-Crush · 2026-06-24 · v1.55
Add more levels
If they added other metros, like the LA metro, then that would make the game more diverse and challenging to fully beat. Great game though!
★★★★★positiveHayden Wang :-) · 2026-06-13 · v1.55
Actually good
No ads, good gameplay, one time only buy. What a good game!
★★★★★positiveVanderbilt Cool · 2026-06-11 · v1.55

★★★★★positiveSammy2328 · 2026-06-02 · v1.55
Good game
Seems like just the right complexity for a mobile game. Really good art style and color palette as well (both light mode and dark mode).
★★★★positivesaltshock · 2026-05-31 · v1.55
Almost perfect
Fantastic game, will adjust my review to 5 stars when Philadelphia is added.
★★★★★positiveBMW3.14 · 2026-05-21 · v1.55
Amazing game
I’ve always loved subways. This game is great for me because of that, and it shows that transportation planning is very hard!
